The green catalytic oxidation of alcohols in water by using highly efficient manganosilicate molecular sieves
Abstract
An efficient and green catalytic protocol for the oxidation of alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes is the need of industry and is continuously being sought for. This report describes the use of manganosilicate molecular sieves as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst in aqueous conditions using the peroxodisulfate ions as the oxidising agent. The advantageous feature of this oxidation methodology is the efficiency and selectivity with which it oxidizes the heterocyclic and aliphatic alcohols. The other interesting facet of this communication is the synthesis of manganosilicate molecular sieves by a facile complexing procedure leading to the uniform mesoporous cubic structure devoid of extra-framework bulk manganese oxide species.
